Written requests may 3 be submitted to a public body via personal delivery, mail, 4 telefax, or other means available to the public body. 5 Electronic requests under this Section must appear in their 6 entirety within the body of the electronic submission. As a 7 cybersecurity measure, no public body shall be required to 8 open electronically attached files or hyperlinks to view or 9 access details of a request. A public body that receives a 10 request that would require the public body to open hyperlinks 11 or attached files shall, within 5 business days, notify the 12 requester of the requirement that the entirety of an 13 electronic request must appear within the body of the 14 electronic submission. A public body may honor oral requests 15 for inspection or copying. A public body may not require that a 16 request be submitted on a standard form or require the 17 requester to specify the purpose for a request, except to 18 determine whether the records are requested for a commercial 19 purpose or whether to grant a request for a fee waiver. All 20 requests for inspection and copying received by a public body 21 shall immediately be forwarded to its Freedom of Information 22 officer or designee. 23 (d) Except for requests for records containing video 24 records, each Each public body shall, promptly, either comply 25 with or deny a request for public records within 5 business 26 days after its receipt of the request, unless the time for HB5733 - 5 - LRB104 21238 BDA 35851 b 1 response is properly extended under subsection (e) of this 2 Section. Denial shall be in writing as provided in Section 9 of 3 this Act. Failure to comply with a written request, extend the 4 time for response, or deny a request within 5 business days 5 after its receipt shall be considered a denial of the request. 6 A public body that fails to respond to a request within the 7 requisite periods in this Section but thereafter provides the 8 requester with copies of the requested public records may not 9 impose a fee for such copies. A public body that fails to 10 respond to a request received may not treat the request as 11 unduly burdensome under subsection (g). 12 (d-5) Beginning on the effective date of this amendatory 13 Act of the 104th General Assembly, a public body that receives 14 a request for a record containing video recordings shall 15 either comply with or deny a request for a record that includes 16 video records within: 17 (1) 5 business days after its receipt of the request, 18 if the public body received 1,000 or fewer requests under 19 this Act in the preceding year; or 20 (2) 30 business days after its receipt of the request, 21 if the public body received more than 1,000 requests under 22 this Act in the preceding year. 23 (e) The time for response under this Section may be 24 extended by the public body either for not more than 5 business 25 days from the original due date for a public body that received 26 1,000 or fewer requests under this Act in the preceding year or HB5733 - 6 - LRB104 21238 BDA 35851 b 1 for not more than 10 business days from the original due date 2 for a public body that received more than 1,000 requests under 3 this Act in the preceding year, for any of the following 4 reasons: 5 (i) the requested records are stored in whole or in 6 part at other locations than the office having charge of 7 the requested records; 8 (ii) the request requires the collection of a 9 substantial number of specified records; 10 (iii) the request is couched in categorical terms and 11 requires an extensive search for the records responsive to 12 it; 13 (iv) the requested records have not been located in 14 the course of routine search and additional efforts are 15 being made to locate them; 16 (v) the requested records require examination and 17 evaluation by personnel having the necessary competence 18 and discretion to determine if they are exempt from 19 disclosure under Section 7 of this Act or should be 20 revealed only with appropriate deletions; 21 (vi) the request for records cannot be complied with 22 by the public body within the time limits prescribed by 23 subsection (d) of this Section without unduly burdening or 24 interfering with the operations of the public body; 25 (vii) there is a need for consultation, which shall be 26 conducted with all practicable speed, with another public HB5733 - 7 - LRB104 21238 BDA 35851 b 1 body or among 2 or more components of a public body having 2 a substantial interest in the determination or in the 3 subject matter of the request. 4 The person making a request and the public body may agree 5 in writing to extend the time for compliance for a period to be 6 determined by the parties. If the requester and the public 7 body agree to extend the period for compliance, a failure by 8 the public body to comply with any previous deadlines shall 9 not be treated as a denial of the request for the records. 10 (f) When additional time is required for any of the above 11 reasons, the public body shall, within 5 business days after 12 receipt of the request, notify the person making the request 13 of the reasons for the extension and the date by which the 14 response will be forthcoming. Failure to respond within the 15 time permitted for extension shall be considered a denial of 16 the request. A public body that fails to respond to a request 17 within the time permitted for extension but thereafter 18 provides the requester with copies of the requested public 19 records may not impose a fee for those copies. A public body 20 that requests an extension and subsequently fails to respond 21 to the request may not treat the request as unduly burdensome 22 under subsection (g). 23 (g) Requests calling for all records falling within a 24 category shall be complied with unless compliance with the 25 request would be unduly burdensome for the complying public 26 body and there is no way to narrow the request and the burden HB5733 - 8 - LRB104 21238 BDA 35851 b 1 on the public body outweighs the public interest in the 2 information. Before invoking this exemption, the public body 3 shall extend to the person making the request an opportunity 4 to confer with it in an attempt to reduce the request to 5 manageable proportions. If any public body responds to a 6 categorical request by stating that compliance would unduly 7 burden its operation and the conditions described above are 8 met, it shall do so in writing, specifying the reasons why it 9 would be unduly burdensome and the extent to which compliance 10 will so burden the operations of the public body. Such a 11 response shall be treated as a denial of the request for 12 information. 13 Repeated requests from the same person for the same 14 records that are unchanged or identical to records previously 15 provided or properly denied under this Act shall be deemed 16 unduly burdensome under this provision. 17 (h) Each public body may promulgate rules and regulations 18 in conformity with the provisions of this Section pertaining 19 to the availability of records and procedures to be followed, 20 including: 21 (i) the times and places where such records will be 22 made available, and 23 (ii) the persons from whom such records may be 24 obtained. 25 (i) The time periods for compliance or denial of a request 26 to inspect or copy records set out in this Section shall not HB5733 - 9 - LRB104 21238 BDA 35851 b 1 apply to requests for records made for a commercial purpose, 2 requests by a recurrent requester, or voluminous requests. 3 Such requests shall be subject to the provisions of Sections 4 3.1, 3.2, and 3.6 of this Act, as applicable. 5 (j) Within 5 business days after its receipt of the 6 request, a public body that has a reasonable belief that a 7 request was not submitted by a person may require the 8 requester to verify orally or in writing that the requester is 9 a person. The deadline for the public body to respond to the 10 request shall be tolled until the requester verifies that he 11 or she is a person. If the requester fails to verify that he or 12 she is a person within 30 days after the public body requests 13 such a verification, then the public body may deny the 14 request. For purposes of this subsection (j), a public body 15 may not require the requester to submit personal information, 16 private information, or identifying information to verify that 17 the requester is a person. 18 (Source: P.A. 104-438, eff. 1-1-26.) 19 (5 ILCS 140/6) (from Ch. 116, par. 206) 20 Sec. 6. Authority to charge fees. 21 (a) Except for records that are audio or video files 22 maintained in an electronic format as provided in subsection 23 (a-10), when When a person requests a copy of a record 24 maintained in an electronic format, the public body shall 25 furnish it in the electronic format specified by the HB5733 - 10 - LRB104 21238 BDA 35851 b 1 requester, if feasible. If it is not feasible to furnish the 2 public records in the specified electronic format, then the 3 public body shall furnish it in the format in which it is 4 maintained by the public body, or in paper format at the option 5 of the requester. A public body may charge the requester for 6 the actual cost of purchasing the recording medium, whether 7 disc, diskette, tape, or other medium. If a request is not a 8 request for a commercial purpose or a voluminous request, a 9 public body may not charge the requester for the costs of any 10 search for and review of the records or other personnel costs 11 associated with reproducing the records. Except to the extent 12 that the General Assembly expressly provides, statutory fees 13 applicable to copies of public records when furnished in a 14 paper format shall not be applicable to those records when 15 furnished in an electronic format. 16 (a-5) Except for records that are audio or video files 17 maintained in an electronic format as provided in subsection 18 (a-10), if If a voluminous request is for electronic records 19 and those records are not in a portable document format (PDF), 20 the public body may charge up to $20 for not more than 2 21 megabytes of data, up to $40 for more than 2 but not more than 22 4 megabytes of data, and up to $100 for more than 4 megabytes 23 of data. If a voluminous request is for electronic records and 24 those records are in a portable document format, the public 25 body may charge up to $20 for not more than 80 megabytes of 26 data, up to $40 for more than 80 megabytes but not more than HB5733 - 11 - LRB104 21238 BDA 35851 b 1 160 megabytes of data, and up to $100 for more than 160 2 megabytes of data. If the responsive electronic records are in 3 both a portable document format and not in a portable document 4 format, the public body may separate the fees and charge the 5 requester under both fee scales. 6 (a-10) If a request is made for an audio or video file that 7 is maintained in an electronic format, then the public body 8 may not charge for the first 60 minutes of staff time to 9 prepare the response, which may include, among other things, 10 conducting necessary research regarding the request, as well 11 as locating, collecting, reviewing, and redacting any 12 responsive audio or video files. After the first 60 minutes of 13 staff time, the public body may charge the preparation costs 14 of the public body's lowest paid staff member employed in a 15 position that performs the work to prepare the response. The 16 hourly wage shall be based on the public body's payroll 17 records on the date of the receipt of the FOIA request and 18 shall be charged in increments of 15 minutes with all partial 19 increments rounded down to the nearest 15-minute increment. 20 Labor costs shall also include an additional 50% of the hourly 21 wage of the public body's lowest paid staff member employed in 22 a position that performs the work to partially cover the cost 23 of fringe benefits, not to exceed the actual cost of fringe 24 benefits. Payment will not be required from (i) a crime victim 25 who is the subject of the requested audio or video file or (ii) 26 a parent, spouse, child, or legal guardian of a deceased HB5733 - 12 - LRB104 21238 BDA 35851 b 1 person who is the subject of the requested audio or video file. 2 It is the obligation of the requesting crime victim or parent, 3 spouse, child, or legal guardian of a deceased person to 4 provide documentation to establish the requester's 5 qualification for the payment exemption under this subsection 6 (a-10). If a public body intends to require payment pursuant 7 to this subsection (a-10), it must notify the requester within 8 10 business days of receipt of the request of the minimum 9 hourly wage that will be applicable to the preparation cost 10 calculation and provide an estimate of the personnel hours 11 needed to prepare the response. Within 10 business days of 12 receipt of the estimate, the requester must notify the public 13 body in writing whether they agree to provide payment in the 14 estimated amount or do not wish to proceed with the request. 15 Upon the public body's receipt of the requester's written 16 agreement to provide payment in the estimated amount, the 17 public body will respond to the request in accordance with the 18 time periods set forth in subsections (d) and (d-5) of Section 19 3 of this Act. If the requester agrees to provide payment, 20 after preparation of the response, the public body must 21 provide the requester with an accounting of all fees, costs, 22 and personnel hours in connection with the audio or video 23 request for public records. The requester must provide payment 24 within 10 business days of receipt of the accounting, and the 25 public body must provide the response within 5 business days 26 of receipt of payment. HB5733 - 13 - LRB104 21238 BDA 35851 b 1 If a public body imposes a fee pursuant to this subsection 2 (a-5), it must provide the requester with an accounting of all 3 fees, costs, and personnel hours in connection with the 4 request for public records. 5 (b) Except when a fee is otherwise fixed by statute, each 6 public body may charge fees reasonably calculated to reimburse 7 its actual cost for reproducing and certifying public records 8 and for the use, by any person, of the equipment of the public 9 body to copy records. No fees shall be charged for the first 50 10 pages of black and white, letter or legal sized copies 11 requested by a requester. The fee for black and white, letter 12 or legal sized copies shall not exceed 15 cents per page. If a 13 public body provides copies in color or in a size other than 14 letter or legal, the public body may not charge more than its 15 actual cost for reproducing the records. In calculating its 16 actual cost for reproducing records or for the use of the 17 equipment of the public body to reproduce records, a public 18 body shall not include the costs of any search for and review 19 of the records or other personnel costs associated with 20 reproducing the records, except for commercial requests as 21 provided in subsection (f) of this Section. Such fees shall be 22 imposed according to a standard scale of fees, established and 23 made public by the body imposing them. The cost for certifying 24 a record shall not exceed $1. 25 (c) Documents shall be furnished without charge or at a 26 reduced charge, as determined by the public body, if the HB5733 - 14 - LRB104 21238 BDA 35851 b 1 person requesting the documents states the specific purpose 2 for the request and indicates that a waiver or reduction of the 3 fee is in the public interest. Waiver or reduction of the fee 4 is in the public interest if the principal purpose of the 5 request is to access and disseminate information regarding the 6 health, safety and welfare or the legal rights of the general 7 public and is not for the principal purpose of personal or 8 commercial benefit. For purposes of this subsection, 9 "commercial benefit" shall not apply to requests made by news 10 media when the principal purpose of the request is to access 11 and disseminate information regarding the health, safety, and 12 welfare or the legal rights of the general public. In setting 13 the amount of the waiver or reduction, the public body may take 14 into consideration the amount of materials requested and the 15 cost of copying them. 16 (d) The imposition of a fee not consistent with this 17 Section subsections (6)(a) and (b) of this Act constitutes a 18 denial of access to public records for the purposes of 19 judicial review. 20 (e) The fee for each abstract of a driver's record shall be 21 as provided in Section 6-118 of "The Illinois Vehicle Code", 22 approved September 29, 1969, as amended, whether furnished as 23 a paper copy or as an electronic copy. 24 (f) A public body may charge up to $10 for each hour spent 25 by personnel in searching for and retrieving a requested 26 record or examining the record for necessary redactions. No HB5733 - 15 - LRB104 21238 BDA 35851 b 1 fees shall be charged for the first 8 hours spent by personnel 2 in searching for or retrieving a requested record. A public 3 body may charge the actual cost of retrieving and transporting 4 public records from an off-site storage facility when the 5 public records are maintained by a third-party storage company 6 under contract with the public body. If a public body imposes a 7 fee pursuant to this subsection (f), it must provide the 8 requester with an accounting of all fees, costs, and personnel 9 hours in connection with the request for public records. The 10 provisions of this subsection (f) apply only to commercial 11 requests. 12 (Source: P.A. 97-579, eff. 8-26-11; 98-1129, eff. 12-3-14.) 13 (5 ILCS 140/7) 14 (Text of Section before amendment by P.A. 104-300 ) 15 Sec. 7. Exemptions. 16 (1) When a request is made to inspect or copy a public 17 record that contains information that is exempt from 18 disclosure under this Section, but also contains information 19 that is not exempt from disclosure, the public body may elect 20 to redact the information that is exempt. The public body 21 shall make the remaining information available for inspection 22 and copying. Subject to this requirement, the following shall 23 be exempt from inspection and copying: 24 (a) Information specifically prohibited from 25 disclosure by federal or State law or rules and HB5733 - 16 - LRB104 21238 BDA 35851 b 1 regulations implementing federal or State law. 2 (b) Private information, unless disclosure is required 3 by another provision of this Act, a State or federal law, 4 or a court order. 5 (b-5) Files, documents, and other data or databases 6 maintained by one or more law enforcement agencies and 7 specifically designed to provide information to one or 8 more law enforcement agencies regarding the physical or 9 mental status of one or more individual subjects. 10 (c) Personal information contained within public 11 records, the disclosure of which would constitute a 12 clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy, unless 13 the disclosure is consented to in writing by the 14 individual subjects of the information. "Unwarranted 15 invasion of personal privacy" means the disclosure of 16 information that is highly personal or objectionable to a 17 reasonable person and in which the subject's right to 18 privacy outweighs any legitimate public interest in 19 obtaining the information.
